Chapter 1118 Try your best

"Boom boom boom boom!!!"

The first batch of crossbow arrows slammed into the first light blue "water ripple array", causing a deafening roar.

The golden rune light exploded on the formation surface, like a hot iron thrown into calm water, and the water ripples on the formation surface instantly twisted and shattered.

The tip of the arrow was like a red-hot iron piercing butter, easily penetrating the first layer of light patterns. The runes on the arrow shaft collided with the spiritual energy of the formation, making a "sizzling" sound and emitting bursts of white smoke.

Then, the runes on the arrow shaft suddenly lit up, and the power of the law surged into the formation like a tide, tearing the structure of the light shield from the inside out.

The force-relieving effect of the "Water Ripple Array" is as fragile as paper in the face of this force.

“Crack—”

A clear shattering sound was heard, and the first line of defense formation cracked into dense lines like glass!

Those lines spread at a speed visible to the naked eye, and completely shattered in the next second, turning into light spots all over the sky and dissipating into the air.

The aftermath of the broken formation rushed towards the Situ family camp, and many people were thrown back a few steps, their faces full of horror.

They didn't expect that the first formation couldn't even block a rain of arrows!

The second, bright white "Jade Void Formation" was not much better.

The moment the crossbow arrow penetrated, the light shield began to vibrate violently, like a candle swaying in the wind, which could go out at any time.

Countless cracks spread from the arrow tip as the center. The spiritual energy condensed by the formation was constantly devoured and torn apart by the rain of arrows, and the bright white light on the formation surface became dimmer and dimmer.

However, in the blink of an eye, the "Yuxu Formation" also followed the same fate as the first formation, breaking into pieces, and the spiritual energy dissipated into the air, leaving behind a faint smell of burning.

The third dark golden "Golden Spear Formation" barely held on for a moment.

The impact of the rain of arrows was weakened a little by the first two formations, but countless crossbow arrows still penetrated the light patterns and fell among the disciples of the Situ family with a shrill scream.

The light patterns of the "Golden Spear Formation" kept flickering, the dark golden light flickered, and the runes on the formation surface went out one by one, as if they were struggling to survive.

An elder of the Situ family who was responsible for maintaining the formation suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale in an instant.

The formation was connected to his mind, and when the formation was damaged, he also suffered backlash.

"Hold on! You must hold on!"

He roared in his heart, but his body became weaker and weaker, and his vision began to go black.

As the formation was broken, countless arrows finally had no obstacles and shot down towards the Situ family camp!

“Puff—”

The sound of blood splattering came one after another.

The weaker disciples had no time to react before they were pierced through the chest by crossbow arrows. The arrow tips came out from their backs and were nailed to the ground with warm blood beads.

Their eyes widened, blood gushed out of their mouths, and they wanted to say something, but could only make "ho ho" sounds, their eyes full of unwillingness and despair - they were still young and didn't want to die.

Someone was hit by several crossbow arrows at the same time. His body flew backwards like a rag doll and fell heavily to the ground. The sound of broken bones could be heard clearly. Blood kept flowing out of his mouth and he soon lost his voice.

Some people tried to use magic weapons to resist, but the impact of the crossbow arrows made their arms numb. Deep dents appeared on the magic weapons, and cracks spread along the dents. The next second, the magic weapon shattered with a "click". He closed his eyes in despair, waiting for death to come.

But the expected pain did not come. He opened his eyes and saw that his companion had blocked an arrow for him. The arrow pierced his companion's chest and blood splattered on his face.

"Whoosh whoosh!!!"

The rain of arrows was still falling, and screams continued from the Situ family camp.

Some people were shot like hedgehogs, their bodies full of crossbow arrows. They fell to the ground motionless, blood flowing down the arrow shafts and forming pools of blood on the ground.

Someone fell to the ground seriously injured and struggled to get up, but was hit by a subsequent crossbow arrow and fell completely silent.

The corpses fell from the sky like kites with broken strings, hitting the ground below with a "thump thump" sound, splashing dust and blood all over the ground. The smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger, making people nauseous.

However, in just a few breaths, the number of people in the Situ family camp was reduced by 70%.

The surviving tribesmen were covered in blood, some had their arms pierced by arrows, and some had their legs broken. They relied on broken magic weapons or the corpses of their companions for support, their faces full of fear.

They looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground, those familiar faces now lifeless, their hearts filled with fear and despair.

Will I be the next one to die?

They looked up at the figure in the air again. They couldn't see the other person's expression, but they could feel the unfathomable power, like a sword hanging over their heads, making them dare not even breathe loudly.

Situ Xiong stood there, trembling all over. He looked at the tragic scene in front of him, then looked down at his blood-stained hands.

This was the blood that was stained when he helped up a seriously injured tribesman just now, but now, that tribesman has stopped breathing.

He gritted his teeth and growled, "Damn it!!!"

The anger and heartache in my heart are intertwined.

What made people angry was the young man's cruelty, and what made them sad was that these disciples were the backbone of the Situ family. Now 70% of them were dead. Even if they could survive this time, the strength of the Situ family would be much less than before.

"From now on, I'm afraid other forces will really dare to act in front of our Situ family..."

He thought desperately, remembering the expectations of his ancestors and his own previous ambitions, all of which had now vanished into thin air. A feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart, making him almost kneel to the ground.

At this moment, the faces of those guests who originally wanted to show their loyalty to the Situ family were even uglier than those of the Situ family.

Although they blocked the rain of arrows with their strong strength, the arrows still cut several holes on their sleeves, revealing the bleeding wounds inside. The wounds sent waves of stinging pain, reminding them of the danger they had just experienced.

Looking at the miserable state of the Situ family and thinking of the horrific method that young man used to control the rain of arrows, they began to back off.

If the Situ family did not have a stronger trump card, they would probably lose their lives if they continued to stay here.

"I should have known not to join in the fun..."

A round-faced monk was filled with regret. He had originally wanted to take this opportunity to establish a relationship with the Situ family in order to obtain more resources for cultivation.

But now, let alone resources, even survival is a problem.

But they didn't dare to leave easily.

If the Situ family has a backup plan to counterattack and kill the other party, if they leave now, they will not only lose the opportunity to curry favor with the Situ family, but will also completely offend this behemoth.

"Wait a little longer... Watch a little longer..."

Some people comforted themselves in their hearts, keeping their eyes fixed on the Situ family's camp, hoping to see the Situ family come up with a stronger trump card.

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of hesitation. No one dared to speak up to leave. In the end, they could only stay where they were, tightly gripping their magic weapons, their knuckles turning white, staring at the air vigilantly, but their bodies subconsciously stepped back, ready to escape at any time.

At this time in the city, the old, weak and sick people who failed to escape in time were cheering excitedly.

When they saw the rain of arrows coming towards the city, they thought they were doomed.

Some people even closed their eyes and waited for death, with fragments of their lives flashing through their minds: the smiling faces of their children, the advice of their loved ones, and unfulfilled wishes.

Unexpectedly, the young man turned the situation around, not only protecting the city, but also killing so many people from the Situ family.

"I don't have to die?!"

A white-haired old man stretched out his hand tremblingly, touched his cheek, felt the real temperature, and tears instantly flowed down.

He remembered that when the rain of arrows came just now, he had already prepared to die. Now, he was still alive and could see tomorrow's sun.

"God has eyes..."

The old man choked up and said, his voice full of joy at surviving the disaster.

"We survived! We survived!!!"

A woman hugged her child and cried excitedly, her tears soaking the child's clothes.

She looked down at the sleeping child in her arms, her heart filled with relief.

Just now she held the child tightly under her body, thinking that she was going to die, but now, the child is still fine, and they all survived.

She gently kissed the child's forehead, her voice trembling: "Baby, we are safe, we don't have to be afraid anymore."

"Damn Situ family, they don't take our lives seriously at all!!!"

A middle-aged man clenched his fists, his eyes full of anger, and the scar on his face turned slightly red due to excitement.

He thought of his wife, who was beaten to death because she accidentally bumped into a disciple of the Situ family. He dared not say anything and could only endure it silently.

"Damn it, it's good that the Situ family members die, the more the better!!!"

The man roared, his voice filled with long-suppressed hatred, which he could finally vent without restraint.

He knew that with that young man around, the Situ family would definitely be in big trouble.

In the past, they were in awe of the Situ family and dared not say a bad word about them for fear of bringing about fatal disaster.

But this time, the Situ family actually wanted to massacre the city with a rain of arrows, which completely ignited their anger.

Seeing that the Situ family suffered heavy losses, everyone shouted excitedly, some waved their arms, and some hugged each other, completely disregarding whether it would offend the Situ family.

They had had enough of the Situ family's oppression, and now, they finally saw hope.

Those who were watching the battle from a distance were already dumbfounded at this moment.

They opened their mouths, unable to utter a word for a long time. They just stared blankly at the tragic situation in the Situ family camp, then looked at the figure in the air, their eyes full of shock and awe.

"This... This is too scary, right?"

A monk stammered, and the folding fan in his hand fell to the ground, and he didn't even bother to pick it up.

No one expected that not only did the Situ family fail to kill the other party, but the other party used their own Immortal-Slaying Crossbow to kill 70% of their disciples.

This is not just a bad start, it is a disaster!

"From now on, I'm afraid no one will dare to provoke this young man..."

Someone whispered, secretly deciding in his heart that if he met this young man in the future, he must take a detour and never offend him.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Ye Chen, and their pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip.

The expressions that were originally calm, contemptuous, or scrutinizing were now all covered with a thick layer of shock.

Someone subconsciously clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist, his knuckles turning white!

Someone forgot to fan the jade fan in his hand, and the ink bamboo patterns on the fan surface trembled slightly!

Several young monks even opened their mouths wide, forgetting to breathe and letting the cold wind pour into their throats.

The aftermath of energy that had not yet completely dissipated from Ye Chen's body gently spread out like pale golden ripples, and every rise and fall made the surrounding air emit a subtle hum.

This aura completely crushed the last trace of doubt in everyone's hearts, turning the words that the Situ family would be destroyed from an absurd joke into a heavy reality.

"What he said before, that he would make the Situ family disappear, was really not just empty talk!!!"

Someone in the crowd finally found his voice, and there was an unconcealable tremor in his words. After he finished speaking, he subconsciously took half a step back, as if he was afraid of being affected by the battle in front.

"His strength is his greatest confidence!!!"

An old man with a goatee next to him suddenly stopped stroking his beard, staring at Ye Chen's back with a turbulent wave in his eyes.

"This is interesting! I dare say this is definitely the biggest disaster the Situ family has ever encountered! If it's not handled properly, it could really be a disaster for the Situ family!!!"

Another strong man in a brocade robe stroked the jade ring on his finger, with a hint of watching the fun on the corner of his mouth, but the solemnity in his eyes could not be hidden.

Many powerful people who were watching the fight became interested. They were originally leaning on the branches of the ancient trees or sitting in the temporary stands, with a leisurely posture as if they were watching a circus.

Some of them were even holding teacups, with tea swaying gently in the cups, but now everyone stood up, with the teacups casually placed aside, their eyes fixed on the center of the battlefield.

They originally thought that the young man could only last a few rounds at most before being pinned to the ground by the Situ family. After all, the Situ family has a long history and is filled with powerful people. How could a young boy shake them?

But reality slapped them in the face.

Countless members of the Situ family have fallen, including elite members of the clan and elders of high seniority, and their bodies are lying on the ground in all directions.

The broken weapon was stuck in the soil, still slightly hot and emitting a burnt smell. On the contrary, Ye Chen stood in place, his clothes only swaying slightly in the wind, and even his hair was not messed up.

"Attack together! Don't hold back! We must kill him completely in the shortest possible time!!!"

Situ Xiong's roar exploded in the sky like thunder. His cheeks flushed red with anger, and the blue veins on his forehead bulged. His originally neatly combed bun now had a few strands of hair loose, sticking to his sweaty forehead.

He stared at Ye Chen intently, his eyes full of bloodshot.

No one in the Situ family is a coward.

They started off badly, suffered a great disaster and suffered heavy losses.

However, as members of the Situ family, the arrogance in their bones is not so easy to be broken!
